Re: Media Keys Do Not Work For iTunes

Since updating to the High Sierra beta, the media keys (skip backward, play/pause, skip forward) do not seem to be working with iTunes anymore. They do however work in Safari to control the playing and pausing of video content (e.g. YouTube).

Same problem here. This is so annoying. Why doesn't control ever return to iTunes? I've had to restart my laptop to get control back, but then a few hours later, it's lost again and I have to do another restart. Seriously? Hello @Apple??

I'm on macOS 10.13.1 and this problem exists for me too. I use Apple Music throughout the day and not being able to start and stop my music without having to go to the iTunes App is debilitating. I’ve filed a bug report about this.
